translation into German, can anyone help

trying to ask about some parts from a German supplier but emails in English have gone unanswered and my knowledge of German is nil. I don't really trust babel fish and the like. can anyone help by translating this into German?

'please could you tell me if you have a right front wing for a twin headlight model (1989). Are they original Toyota parts?'

thanks in advance

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
